What’s happening? Since 2019, WI has been expending state funds to expand the state broadband network. The numbers:

$28.4 million already awarded
39 counties
$48 million in second round funding
58 projects to reach 6,159 businesses and 106,000 homes

Why is this important? States and cities are all looking to expand broadband access and there’s a lot of COVID funding available.

How will this be important? This ongoing project with ongoing funding is going to be an extended procurement opportunity
